FAQs

Is Freak Shake...

Natural?

Mostly- There has never been a Freak of Nature without Nature.   Freak Shake products are formulated from natural ingredients and flavors with the exception of the alkalized cocoa in our chocolate products.  Cocoa processed with alkali helps make our powdered mix dissolve in water which is why our products taste delicious. We carry a supplement label because our products are fortified with epicatechin – an antioxidant nutrient isolated from tea.  Our products are produced in facilities that are regulated under the precise and rigorous manufacturing practices required by FDA for supplement manufacturing.

Vegan?

No – We don’t currently offer a Vegan formula.  Freak Shake utilizes Dairy Protein Isolate which involved a Dairy Cow before it became an ingredient in our products. Dairy protein has some advantages in its composition of whey and casein proteins.  Both provide a complete amino acid profile. Whey is the most rapidly bioavailable complete protein available and Casein takes a little longer to digest which helps reduce the feeling of bloating for some athletes.  Slower digestion also means more complete protein absorption (In other words less protein ends up passing through your system into the toilet…).  Stay tuned for more and let us know if you’d be interested in a non-dairy protein formula – it’s definitely on our radar

Keto?

No – Carbs are our Freaky friends.  Our Bonk Buster Endurance formula contains a 3-to-1 Carb to Protein Ratio ideal for endurance training and recovery.  (See Sugar Free FAQ)

Sugar-Free?

No – If you’re working hard at conditioning and recovering, simple sugar is the most quickly available natural food source of glucose that your body can convert to glycogen – the energy that fuels your cells.  These molecules are stored primarily in muscles and liver for the next bout of exercise.  Also, sugar makes Freak Shake taste awesome, and let’s be honest – if you’re working this freaking hard, you deserve something that actually tastes good.

Lactose Free

No. Freak Shake Products are Low Lactose. Because we utilize casein and whey protein extracted from dairy in many of our products, there may be trace amounts of lactose.

A Supplement?

Yes- Freak Shake products are naturally formulated and sourced from naturally occurring ingredients.  We carry a Supplement Label in order to comply with the more precise manufacturing standards compared to food-labeled products, and because we include Epicatechin in our formulas. Epicatechin is a naturally occurring antioxidant extracted from tea, but is not recognized by the FDA as food ingredient.

FDA APROVED?

Yes – All Freak Shake products conform to FDA supplement sourcing, manufacturing, and labeling regulations.  They are produced in U.S. facilities that are 3rd party audited and certified under FDA’s “Current Good Manufacturing Practice” (CGMP) guidelines for supplements.
